This book is a must read for anyone who is interested in international trade, and want's to get their foot in the import/export door. Carl A. Nelso helps his readers understand the international trade business with such simplicity, using words and examples that we can all relate too. I definitely appreciate the fact that he implemented the forms and other documents that are used, he helps us relate to them more and he explains the entire process step by step using simple words.
